In his wild interview with DJ Akademiks, the artist formerly known as Kanye West claimed he never wanted to start a family with his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian.
While wearing a black Ku Klux Klan-style robe and hood, Ye discussed his increasingly tense custody battle with Kim, the mother of his four kids. “The situation with Kim, I hear you speak about her a lot,” DJ Akademiks mentioned during the strange interview. “You said nobody really spoke on your behalf. … But some people will be like, ‘You picked her, you put yourself in that situation.’ They are saying that you don’t take accountability.”
Ye replied, “No, that was my fault. I take it.” He then revealed he knew early in their relationship he didn’t want children with her. “I didn’t want to have children with this person after the first two months of being with her,” he said. “But that wasn’t God’s plan.”
Kim has four kids with Kanye: 11-year-old North, 9-year-old Saint, 7-year-old Chicago, and 5-year-old Psalm. They’ve been co-parenting since their split, but as Ye continues embracing extreme viewpoints, the custody arrangement has come under scrutiny.
In other parts of his conversation with Akademiks, Ye tried once again to bait Kendrick Lamar by claiming he “has no hits.” He declared that Drake is “a million times better than Kendrick and a million times more important,” and insisted that Kendrick’s 2022 album Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers is just a “direct copy” of his own 2016 release The Life of Pablo.
